Very nice. I'm Scottish/Irish and I there are many dialects of Scottish Gaelic and some sound more lilting, more uvular, or rhotic. I'm not sure if your man is a native Scottish Gaelic speaker tho speaks it amazingly. Born speakers have an underlying accent. Ah okay, he's said he spent time learning Gaelic? In Edinburgh? spent time in America, did his Phd in Gaelic etc and learnt and spent time in a Gaelic school in Skye called Sabhail Mor Ostaig. I can understand some of your man on the right "I would like", agus for and . But in Irish is also ach? A strong rhythmic sound in Scots Gaelic are words/phrases 1 2 3 4 5 6 ( 1 2 3 like a triplet and an emphasis on the 4.)

Glè inntinneach! Ach = ach sa dá chànan. Bheil thu fhèin fileanta sa Ghàidhlig?

I'm Welsh-speaking and this is so cool! But I speak no Gaelic - Irish nor Scots. Are you able to understand each another when you speak Irish or Scots Gaelic to one another? (sorry. I can't hear the difference between the languages).

[@EoinP]

I was probably being a bit bold with the title... Both of us have knowledge of the other language and know the subject matters we we going to be taking about so it is not a representative sample! I think we still missed some of what each other said though.

[@SionTJobbins]

@@EoinP still impressive!

[@fromireland8663]

Apparently, native Irish speakers from Co. Donegal can make out the dialect spoken in the southern Scottish Isles and via versa.

[@The_Gallowglass]

@@EoinP There was a series where some fellas took a hooker around from the west of Ireland to Scotland and when they got there they seemed to have no problem understanding each other--the gàidhlig speakers and the lads speaking Gaeilge. I don't recall them talking about past familiarity, but I think a good way to keep the languages alive is to gain familiarity with the way each side speaks, for continuity.

I know there are many who would argue with me on this but............I would wager that there's a minimum 80 percent mutual intelligibility between the two and wouldn't be hard pressed to imagine a greater mutual intelligibility than that. Most of the words would be spelled slightly different but pronounced the same or extremely close to the same , enough that each speaker would understand the other. Where most people get hung up is that they only learn one way to say something that may have 4 to 6 different ways of being said depending up the dialect in play while other things have at minimum 2 different ways of saying it , both equally correct but one may be older and mostly fallen out of use..............take the phrase 'I'm tired" , suí síos agus lig do scíth---sit down and rest (scíth is the target word here).......most Irish speaker would say Tá tuirse orm---I'm tired , while in Gàidhlig it would be Tha mi sgìth......in Irish it would be equally correct to say Táim scíth , Tá mé scíth , or Thá mé scíth , or even Thá scíth orm , Tá scíth orm.......most people don't learn that though from what I've seen , the learn Tá tuirse orm and that's all they know about that phrase and that's just one example.......maybe not 100 percent mutual intelligibility , but definitely a minimum of 80 percent.
